We've had maybe a couple of tenths at my apartment in Tyler, TX so far this weekend, once again missing out on any of the heavier downpours. Other areas have been more fortunate and we should get a good rain continuing throughout today. Where I work, we have received about 1"-1.5" this weekend near Hallsville, TX. It is humid outside but it is very nice to have a week of temperatures in the 80's in mid-August in Texas. Glad a lot of places are getting rain as well, luckily nothing like what Louisiana experienced.

The last few days have been interesting, with many areas getting good amounts of decent rainfall from afternoon/evening storms. Yesterday was nice here at work where we had a couple different rounds of thunderstorms and moderate/heavy rain. Afternoon temperatures fell into the low/mid-70's, which is a Godsend in July for this area. Tyler (at least IMBY) has missed most of the more widespread heavy rain, but has had a few localized downpours here and there. We have a couple more days of rain chances before it heats back up and dries out next week.

The storms are dying out now to the east. Another sprinkle/light shower event for here, if we even get that.

Fairly substantial outflow is pushing west, south, and eastward, firing new convection as it passes. I'm hopeful that with this eastward progression it might trigger a storm IMBY!

Cluster of strong storms dropping south towards DFW from the Red River. The DFW area sure has been getting lucky with these lately. We could use some rain a bit farther east.
